Key Stage 3 Workshops
Practical legal education for Years 8 to 10. Gives students the legal foundation to understand their rights and responsibilities, with three flexible time formats including an optional mock trial.
Legal literacy for the early secondary years.
Key Stage 3 is the foundation period for so much of what comes next, including legal awareness. Our Years 8 to 10 workshop introduces students to the legal topics most relevant to their age group, with content tailored to the maturity and curriculum context of KS3 in Northern Ireland.
The workshop is offered in three time formats: a 1-hour legal foundation session, a 2-hour in-depth conversation, and a 3-hour format that includes our flagship mock trial with wigs and gowns. Schools choose the format that suits their timetable.
All sessions are discussion-led and tailored to the school's context. Aligned to Northern Ireland's Learning for Life and Work (LLW) curriculum and Citizenship strand.
